luchiaHOW WAS MY DAY? Frought with peril and burning rubber. But don't take my word for it. Here, let's look at some pretty pictures of what happened.
THERE I WAS, driving down the great C-470 after passing University and heading onwards to Quebec, when, two cars ahead of me, a pickup drops a big black metal THING. The two cars ahead of me swerve away from it, but not me. Oh no, I was too busy avoiding the car in front of me, since it had decided that swerving into the left front headlight of my car sounded pretty fun.
BAM, my tire's gone. I screeched like a pterodactyl swooping in for the kill, my car making a similar noise as I tried to coast over onto the shoulder, my poor poor car limping along towards the shoulder.
When what should have been my right front tire touched dirt, I finally stopped going over (but didn't stop flailing and freaking out, woe!) and called my Mommy and asked her to saaaave meeeeeeeee! She did so by calling my EVER-HEROIC AND LIFE-SAVING brother Tommy ("Tom" to you) to my rescue! Valiantly pulling up behind me in his shining silver rumbly-car, he got out with traffic screaming by and immediately set to work saving me from an everyday mishap in a terribly heroic and dramatically lit manner!
He asked for a quarter afterwards and I gave him one, because he's awesome, and then he rumbled his way back to work! Because he's awesome AND likes his job! Yay Tommy!
I drove down the highway at a blistering speed of 55 miles an hour, getting passed and even honked at once, got off at Quebec, and limped my poor way home.
My Mom suggested I patch my tire. It was amusing.

I'm at three pages and she STILL WON'T SAY IT. I may have to restart the whole thing, argh.
